Gulkana Village Council Indian General Assistance Program (GVC IGAP) promotes recycling.

With the help of Copper River Native Association's EPA/IGAP/TRP Programs and organizations that pick up recyclables and/or continue their recycling programs the community will reduce waste that goes to the local landfill, this prolongs the life cycle of the landfill, and tribal members learn to recycle. The Gulkana Village Council's IGAP has a Recycling Program in which we are able to pick up Recyclables for Gulkana Tribal Members and there is a Recycling center at the dumpster site and at the CRBRHA apartments. If you would like to participate in our recycling program, please call Sarah Sherwood at the Gulkana IGAP Office at 907-822-4494 and tell us your name, phone number, and physical address.

We do not take anything other than PETE1 WATER bottles and HDPE2 plastics, and please take caps off the plastic bottles. If you have plastic food cartons or any other plastics they go in the trash.We also take aluminum cans only. NO ALUMINUM FOIL OR TIN.

Make sure YOUR aluminum cans and bottles are empty!GVC IGAP can only take plastics BOTTLES with PETE1 or HDPE2!Please follow these rules.

Please do not dump mattresses, furniture, large appliances, hazardous materials, paints, or oils around the dumpsters or recycling center. We cannot dispose of these items,you are responsible for their appropriate disposal.Tsin'aen!
